  Annoying Noise (Topic: noise pollution)   Have you ever tried to sleep but somehow there's a very loud noise? It might be caused by your very bad neighbors or just people enjoying some celebrations. The good thing is that despite there's not really a way to stop it, Fortunately, we still have some ways to cope with it or adapt to it. Everyone knows that noise pollution can be very annoying. When you try to rest, but you can't because the noise just continues to torture your ears and keep you awake. Or when you try to focus on something, but you can’t because the noise just zaps your focus away. Those are just some examples of what noise pollution can do. Now, let's what we can do. You can adapt to it by changing the environment around you. The easiest way is to move to somewhere quieter until the noise goes down. It's also free and doesn't cost you any money unless you plan to settle somewhere else to escape from your bad neighbors. You may also make...

  Negate full access to technology for children (topic: Should a child be allowed to have full access to technology before age of five?) Do you use technology? You probably do since no one can escape from using technology, even children. It’s just about what kind of technology and when is that they start using it. Each person has a different opinion on when children should start using it. Some said the earlier the better, but I don't think that children should have full access to technology before the age of five, or at least parents or adults should watch over them when they using it. There are several reasons for that.   First is that children can spend time with their parents. They may spend their time with their parents doing various activities to strengthen the family’s bond. One of the activities may be about technology which not only strengthens their family’s bond but also makes them learn how to use the technology better with their parent while the parent can al...

  Early bird and Nighty owl. (Topic: Early bird and Night owl.) Have you ever heard of an early bird or night owl? They are people just like us. Actually, we may even be one of them. Both early birds and night owls are different but also share some similarities. So, let’s take a look at them. Early birds are people that are active during the day. They prefer to work during the day and also prefer to do hobbies during the day. They sleep early so that they can wake up in the morning. They mostly sleep for 8 hours. They usually have no problem waking up early since they get enough most of the time. Now let’s take a look at night owl. Night owls are people that are active at night. They prefer to work at night but may still have to work in the morning. They prefer to do hobbies at night. They may sleep late or even in the morning. They are likely to sleep for less than 8 hours since most of the time they must force themselves to wake up and work in the morning and because of t...

  A Difficult choice that people make (topic: Why people move from one country to another?) One does not simply leave one country to another country, but even now people still keep moving from one country to another. The question that comes with it is why people keep doing that. Because people can have many reasons to move to another country, whether they want or not. The first kind of reason is political reason. The government can sometimes work so badly that people start to move to a country with a better government. Some people just hate the government for no reason so they decide to move to another country and some may have a little problem against their political opposition which makes them feel insecure in their own country. The second kind of reason is economic reason. When tax is high people may start to consider moving to another country to get lower taxes. The salary rate or income rate can also be a reason for moving out to other countries which is also in some ...
